Here is what some of our guests told us when we asked them about the Turning Point Center:

“The Turning Point for me has been a healthy, safe, and positive environment for to spend my time, reflect, and gain help and support. The center brings a great opportunity to meet sober people and mingle among the sober community – something that is essential to my recovery. The Turning Point offers so much more than a chance for sobriety. The staff is helpful and wonderful, and I enjoy myself each time I visit.”

– Jon O.

"“I have both mental illness and alcoholism. I don’t work that much or go to school so instead of spending 24 hours in my apartment, I come here to make friends, be useful, and hopefully find recovery from my self-destructive behaviors.”

– Anonymous

"I am a volunteer at Turning Point Center. I have worked here for three months. This place is amazing. Helping guests’ everyday is such a rewarding experience.

Knowing that “I” can help someone feel better when they leave here is such a good feeling. I feel this is now my passion. I wish I would have been connected with a place like this many years ago. As an addict in recovery myself, this place helps me every day. Finally I know this has been the missing link and I can say Turning Point has so many talented people who walk through that door!

I love this place!"

- Julia

"A great place to hang-out, especially in early recovery. You can meet new people who have a common goal, and get connected to a new community of clean individuals on their own paths to recovery."
